1. There was no significant difference among the principles with different backgrounds. The only significant difference was the years being a principal.

3.There was almost no significant difference among teachers’ college students with different backgrounds.
4.There were significant differences of their awareness about principals’ leadership behaviors among principals, teachers and students.
